If BJP wins, it will be a defeat of 6.5 crore Gujaratis. BJP will not get more than 60 seats,said Hardik addressing a public meeting in Mansa, hometown of BJP national president Amit Shah, located about 20 km from the state capital Gandhinagar. The Patidar leader held 'Adhikar Sanmelan' despite being denied permission by the police citing law and order issues.

"BJP spent crores of rupees to make morphed sex tapes. Had I wished I too could have doctored sex tapes of Nitin Patel who is the deputy CM and party's youth wing president Rutvij Patel," Hardik told a crowd of his supporters mostly comprising youths.

Patidar quota warrior Hardik Patel remained resistant in the face of half a dozen of his alleged 'sex-tapes' and 'intimate videos' released earlier this week as he gave a clarion call to defeat BJP in the forthcoming polls"Instead of my sex CDs, people of Gujarat want to see videos of development of Gujarat. In 2007, they had defamed RSS leader Sanjay Joshi with such sex CDs," he said.Defending Congress vice-president Rahul Gandhi's frequent visits to Gujarat, he said: "BJP leaders have accused Gandhi of indulging in politics over his recent visits to Gujarat. What do they have to say about Narendra Modi's frequent visits to Gujarat?"

He insisted that the sex tapes and agitation are not connected. Referring to his former close aides Ketan Patel, Chirag Patel and Amrish Patel joining BJP recently, Hardik said that PAAS leaders who have deserted him to join BJP will never get people's support. "The situation today is such that if Dawood Ibrahim joins BJP, the government would declare tomorrow that all those who were killed in the Mumbai blasts actually died of chikungunya," Hardik statement
